Shirley Mi liman B8 MOTHER What would we do without mother l It is true there are a few r who are forced to get along without her but you will find that those who are motherless, wish with all their heart they weren’t. When father comes home from a day of hard work, it is Mother who has a nice supper ready for him, and who cheers him, by her happy, peaceful smile. She has a pair of soft slippers ready for him to slip on his tired feet. Mother is always interested in what he has to say, be it about his work or what he saw on the car. She always seems to under- stand .
